3 PARTNERSHIPS The Postgraduate Certificate in Health Science is offered in association with The Tertiary Accord of New Zealand (TANZ). TANZ is a collaborative alliance of seven institutes of technology. The TANZ postgraduate health professions partnership includes the Schools of Nursing from the following tertiary education institutions: Eastern Institute of Technology (EIT), Universal College of Learning (UCOL), Ara Institute of Canterbury (Ara), and Otago Polytechnic (OP). On enrolment students who live nearer one of the TANZ partner institutes (UCOL, Ara, OP), rather than EIT, may choose to access/receive academic support from the other participating TANZ partner. KEY DATES All the postgraduate courses are offered as either face to face/online or fully online. This means that the majority of the work is located on a virtual teaching platform with directed activities and learning that the student works through. Teachers work within the virtual classroom setting daily so that they maintain contact with the students as much as if they were in a face to face classroom setting. Blended/online means that there are workshops that the student is required to attend on campus, with the bulk of the learning activity undertaken in the online environment. Various teaching modes are used, such as virtual classroom discussions at predetermined times, and also in the asynchronous format. This flexible method allows students to study at their pace, in their place, at locations throughout New Zealand.

OF CREDITS NZQA LEVEL MN8.401 Blended/ online MN8.402 MN8.405 MN8.406 Blended/ online MN8.408 MN8.409 MN8.410 Advanced Clinical Assessment and Diagnostic Reasoning (N) This course begins with an overview of comprehensive health assessment and diagnostic reasoning within the context of current trends in expanding and advanced practice. Students will critically appraise their own understanding of anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology required to develop advanced skills in interviewing, physical examination and diagnostic reasoning to identify knowledge deficits and learning needs. Skills, approaches and strategies for health assessment and diagnostic reasoning will be further enhanced. Students will be required to engage in significant independent learning and fieldwork. Students will undertake a range of activities to demonstrate advanced clinical assessment skills, critical thinking, and the application of diagnostic reasoning strategies. Advanced Pathophysiology for Health Professionals (I-D) This course builds upon undergraduate study and the knowledge embedded in practice. The course will explore complex adult and child disease processes in order to support advanced diagnostic reasoning and therapeutic interventions for these client groups. This course assumes knowledge of normal physiological function and directs the student towards a progressive and more critical understanding of altered, complex health states. Ethical Concepts and Legal Issues for Advanced Practice (I-D) This course advances knowledge and understanding of ethical and legal principles associated with health care. Students explore questions and reflect on issues concerning the equity and appropriateness of health care services. It provides the opportunity for students to develop knowledge and skills in ethical and legal decision making, and critically appraise various issues associated with ethics and law. Advanced Practice to Support Child and Family Health (I-D) Health care technologies and approaches to care are dynamic. Many of these changes affect both the person/individual and the family as a whole. Arising from this starting point, this course draws on knowledge of the child/tamariki, youth/rangatahi and families/whānau. The child/youth within the family as the centre of health care will be examined and explored from a wide range of perspectives and disciplines. Health Services Management (I-D) This course is intended for those working in health service management and those considering the possibility of a management role. It is anticipated that students participating in this course are able to apply their knowledge and skills to their chosen area of practice. Students will be encouraged to identify and reflect upon the legal and regulatory requirements for health service management as well as the quality management ramifications arising from these. Pharmacotherapeutics for Advanced Nursing / Midwifery Practice (N) This course aims to allow the student to develop a conceptual understanding of pharmacology and therapeutics by building a foundation of knowledge of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. This knowledge will underpin critical analysis of the impact of life stages and disease states on drug therapy and will be complemented by an understanding of drug safety issues. Advancing Specialty Practice (I-D) This course provides the opportunity for students to critically appraise and reflect upon individual and organisational health care provision and to develop strategies for enhancing practice within a specialized area. This course requires the student to reflect upon, evaluate and record their personal journey of development on the continuum of specialty professional practice.

With the steady increase in the number of older people, and particularly frail elders, it is vital that advanced practitioners are able to assess, plan and deliver appropriate and evidence-based services for this age group. The course examines the scope of independent/collaborative practice in relation to health promotion, maintenance and restoration of health, preventative care, rehabilitation and/or palliative care and encourages the generation of new approaches to the of expert care in different settings. Nursing Education and Curricula (N) This course aims to assist learners in developing knowledge, understanding and skills specific to education in nursing. It challenges participants to critically examine historical, philosophical and pedagogical movements, including current and evolving practices within nursing education in New Zealand and internationally. Advanced Diabetes Nursing (N) This course develops advanced theoretical and practical knowledge of diabetes mellitus within a primary care framework to an expert level. Practitioners are assisted to explore the context of diabetes mellitus in relation to the impact of this disease on an international as well as an individual perspective. Contemporary issues in relation to pathophysiology, diagnosis, facilitating clients to reach target goals, and holistic strategies to improve outcomes and prevent co-morbidities will be discussed. Practitioners completing this course would be capable of providing diabetes education and therapeutic environments that support the patient/whanau with diabetes as well as primary prevention for the community. Nutrition for Special Populations (I-D) This course will investigate nutritional requirements for special populations and the roles of inter disciplinary professionals when working with individuals or groups. Critical examination of lifestyle factors, nutritional practices and evaluation of current research will provide insight towards planning interventions and reviewing current initiatives. Health Promotion (I-D) This course enables the student to develop and extend knowledge and skills in health promotion policy, planning, practice and inter-organisational work with partners. Students will critically examine the theoretical, environmental, economic, and social issues in health promotion policy and practice within New Zealand and in an international context. A specific focus will be on addressing health disparities via health promotion. The course will move through topics related to healthy public policy; social and environmental change; health promotion assessment, development and evaluation; and medical approaches to health promotion such as social marketing and selective primary health care. Māori and Indigenous Health (I-D) This course enables the student to develop and extend knowledge and understandings of issues in Māori health from a community development and/or Māori health development perspective. An overview of Māori health will be explored, together with models for describing and analysing health. Students will critically review health strategies, programmes and interventions to reduce health inequalities among Māori with particular focus on research, ethical and policy issues related to Māori health. Health and Health Care in the Context of Aotearoa New Zealand (I-D) This course introduces students to the representation of health in New Zealand by examining the overarching health strategies that guide and inform healthcare.
